Having trouble?

• Q: When I change my skin, it stays the same in-game.
• A: To reduce load on the server, the client caches skins. Restart Minecraft to ensure you are seeing the latest skins for yourself and your friends.

• Q: Nothing happens when I start the launcher
• A: Sometimes windows doesn't correctly bind JAR files to be executed by Java. Try using Jarfix to re-associate the filetype.

• Q: I can't login to my friend's server/I get Connection Timeout errors.
• A: This is usually either a firewall or NAT problem. Whoever is running the server needs to ensure that they have TCP port 25565 (or whatever port they are using) open to the internet. Guide.

• Q: I keep getting "Failed to verify username" when connecting to multiplayer servers.
• A: You can only use servers that use custom authentication plugins or are in offline mode. Official servers will not let you connect.

• Q: When I connect to a server I see "/register <password> <password>" or a message telling me to login.
